wherein A represents a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl, pyridyl or thienyl group, substituted or unsubstituted naphthyl, tetralyl, quinolyl, benzofuranyl, quinazolyl or benzothienyl group or a group of the formula: ##STR3## X represents a group of the formula: ##STR4##

n represents an integer of 0 to 4,

m represents an integer of 1 to 3,

Y represents a carbon or nitrogen atom,

Z represents a group of the formula: --CH₂ --, ##STR5## in which R¹ is a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl, acyl, arylalkyl or heteroarylalkyl group, ##STR6## in which Hal is a halogen atom, ##STR7## in which Hal is a halogen atom, ##STR8## in which Hal is a halogen atom or ##STR9## the symbol " " between Y and Z represents a single or double bond,

the group of the formula: " Z-B" is bonded with the ring in the above formula at the 3- or 4-position, and

B represents a phenyl or naphthyl group which may be substituted with one or two substituents which may be the same or different and which are selected from the group consisting of halogens, lower alkyl groups and lower alkoxy groups.

The lower alkyl groups in the above-mentioned definitions of R¹ and B include, for example, straight-chain or branched alkyl groups having 1 to 6 carbon atoms such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, n-butyl, isopropyl, isobutyl, 1-methylpropyl, tertbutyl, n-pentyl, 1-ethylpropyl, isoamyl and n-hexyl groups. Among them, methyl and ethyl groups are the most preferred.

The lower alkoxy groups in the above-mentioned definition of B are those derived from the abovementioned lower alkyl groups. Preferred examples of them include methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, isopropoxy, butoxy and isobutoxy groups.

The substituents of the "substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group "0 and "substituted or unsubstituted naphthyl group" in the definition of A include, for example, the above-defined lower alkyl and alkoxy groups, hydroxyl group, halogen atoms such as fluorine, bromine, iodine and chlorine, phenyl group and heterocyclic groups having nitrogen atom(s) as the hetero atom such as imidazolyl, pyridyl and pyrazolyl groups. Said compounds may have one to three of these substituents. When the compounds have two or more of these substituents, they may be the same or different.

The phenyl group may have a methylenedioxy or ethylenedioxy group bonded with two different carbon atoms constituting the phenyl ring in addition to the above-mentioned substituents. Further, the substituted phenyl group includes also a group of the formula: ##STR10##

The acyl groups in the definition of R¹ include organic acid residues such as saturated aliphatic, unsaturated aliphatic, carbocyclic and heterocyclic carboxylic acid residues. Examples of them include lower alkanoyl groups such as formyl, acetyl, propionyl, butyryl, isobutyryl, valeryl, isovaleryl and pivaloyl groups, aroyl groups such as benzoyl, toluoyl and naphthoyl groups and heteroaroyl groups such as furoyl, nicotinoyl and isonicotinoyl groups.

The arylalkyl groups in the definition of R¹ include, for example, those derived from substituted or unsubstituted phenyl and naphthyl groups. Typical examples of them include benzyl and phenethyl groups. The substituents in the above definition include, for example, the above-defined lower alkyl and lower alkoxy groups, hydroxyl group and halogen atoms such as fluorine, bromine, iodine and chlorine atoms.

Typical examples of the heteroarylalkyl groups include pyridylalkyl groups such as the picolyl group.

The halogen atoms include fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine atoms.

The pharmacologically acceptable salts are ordinary non-toxic salts, for example, inorganic acid salts such as hydrochlorides, hydrobromides, sulfates and phosphates; organic acid salts such as acetates, maleates, tartrates, methanesulfonates, benzenesulfonates and toluenesulfonates; and amino acid salts such as arginine salts, aspartates and glutamates.

Production Processes

The compounds of the present invention can be produced by various processes. A typical example of these processes comprises: ##STR11##

wherein Hal represents a halogen atom and A, X, Y, Z, B, n, m and Z-B are as defined above.

Namely, a halide of the general formula (II) is reacted with a compound of the general formula (III) to obtain an intended compound of the general formula (I).

The dehydrohalogenation reaction is carried out by heating in an ordinary manner without using any solvent or in an organic solvent inert to the reaction which is selected from the group consisting of alcoholic solvents such as methanol, ethanol and butanol, benzene, toluene, xylene, tetrahydrofuran, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride and dimethylformamide. Preferred results are obtained when the reaction is carried out in the presence of an inorganic salt such as sodium hydrogencarbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate or sodium hydroxide or an organic base such as triethylamine, pyridine, pyrimidine or diethylaniline.

It is apparent from the pharmacological experiments described below that the compounds of the present invention have excellent pharmacological effects on the central nervous system, particularly a remarkable reparative effect on ischemic cerebral vascular disorders. Therefore, these compounds are useful for relieving, remedying or preventing mental disorders due to the cerebral vascular disorders such as cerebral stroke, apoplexy, infarction, arteriosclerosis and dementias, e.g. multiple infarct dementia.

The examples of pharmacological experiments of the compounds of the present invention will be given below:

EXPERIMENTAL EXAMPLE 1 Effect of Protecting Ischemic Brain

Carotid arteries of both sides of ICR mice 6 to 8 weeks old) were exposed under halothane anesthesia and ligated. The mice thus treated had stroke symptoms such as jumping, rolling and convulsion and almost all of them died within 24 h.

The compound of the present invention was administered orally to the mice one hour before the ligation and the survival time (maximum: 6 h) was examined as an index of the effect of protecting the ischemic brain. In this experiment, the compound was used in the form of a 5% suspension in acacia and a 5% acacia solution was given to the control group.

The results are shown in Table 2. It is apparent that the compounds of the present invention had a life-prolonging effect, while the average survival time of the control group was 149.9 min.

EXPERIMENTAL EXAMPLE 2 Effect of Remedying Learning Disorder After Ischemia

Common carotid arteries on both sides of Mongolian gerbils (17 to 21 weeks old) were clipped with Skoville clamps without anesthesia and the clamps were removed after 5 min to realize a short period of ischemia. Twenty-four hours after the removal of the clamps, these animals were subjected to learning and memory tests were conducted after an additional 24 h.

The learning and memory functions were examined by the passive avoidance method with a modification of a device reported by Jarvik and Kopp in "Psychological Reports", 21, 221 to 224 (1967). The device had two chambers, i.e. a well-lighted chamber A and a dark chamber B. In the tests, the animals were placed in the well-lighted chamber A and an electric current (A.C., 1.6 mA) was applied to a grid on the floor of the dark chamber B for 5 min when they entered the chamber B.

On the next day, the animals subjected to the learning were placed in the chamber A and the time (latent time) which had elapsed before they entered the chamber B was measured. The upper limit of the latent time was set at 300 sec.

The compound was administered in the form of a 5% suspension in acacia orally one hour before causing the ischemia. A 5% acacia solution was administered to the control group.

The results are shown in Table 3. The average latent time of the normal (pseudo-operation) group was 246.5 sec and that of the control group was as short as 71.5 sec. Namely, the learning and memory functions of them were damaged by the 5-min ischemia.

EXPERIMENTAL EXAMPLE 3 Effect of Protecting Cells From Disorder After Ischemia

Carotid arteries on both sides of Mongolian gerbils were blocked to realize cerebral ischemia for 5 min. As a result, the nerve cells in the CAI region of the hippocampus disappeared extensively [Karino, T.: Brain Res., 239, 57 to 69 (1982)].

The compound of the present invention was administered orally to them, while a 5% acacia suspension was administered to the control group. After one hour, the ischemia was realized for 5 min. After one week, the animal was perfused and fixed with 4% neutral formalin transcardially. The treated sample was embedded in paraffin and cut to obtain slices having a thickness of 3 μm. The slices were dyed with hematoxylin-eosin and the number of the nerve cells in the CAI region of the hippocampus of each slice was counted.

The results are shown in Table 4. The nerve cell density in the CAI region of the hippocampus was 287/mm in the normal (pseudo-operation) group and that of the control group was as small as 21/mm. Namely, a serious disapperance of the cell was caused by the 5-min ischemia. On the other hand, when the compound of the present invention was administered, the nerve cell density was increased to prove the effect thereof in protecting the cells from the disorder.
